Everything you need to know

What is Elegance Colour?

Elegance Colour is a range of rainwater systems including guttering and downpipes. Unlike traditional ranges, you have 11 colours to choose from and one unique Java finish. All the colours are available in a matte or cast iron finish and a Square or Sovereign profile, giving you a total of 24 different options.

What are the systems made from?

The Elegance Colour range is innovatively manufactured from PVCu and not legacy materials such as cast iron. PVCu can bend without breaking, cope with heavy rainfall and withstand warm weather. It’s also 100% recyclable at the end of its life. What’s more, the system will not corrode or leak and is easier to install and maintain.

Are the systems recyclable?

Polypipe is always working towards a greener and better future, which is why our systems are 100% recyclable at the end of their lifecycle.

How much rain water can they hold?

Our Square system is stylishly crafted, with a guttering profile that can drain a roof area up to 144m2 and can also cope with snowfall. Our Sovereign system is a beautifully crafted guttering profile that can drain a roof area up to 284m2 and can also cope with snowfall.

Do the systems come with a guarantee?

All of our products and systems go through rigorous testing to ensure we only provide our customers with the best products. The same goes for the guttering and downpipes within the Elegance Colour range, which is why we offer our homeowners a 10-year guarantee on their rainwater system.

What profiles are available for the systems?

Every project has different needs, that’s why each colour comes in either a Square of Sovereign profile, as well as a matte or cast iron finish.

How much would my client have to pay for Elegance Colour?

A four-bedroom detached house would cost approximately £1,600. Whereas a three-bedroom semi-detached house would be an estimated £1,300, excluding fitting. This is just a guide as every house and system is different.

For what kind of properties will I be able to offer Elegance Colour?

We have three collections and a total of 11 colours to choose from – Coastal, Contemporary and Heritage – and one unique Java finish. All the colours are available in a matte or cast iron finish and Square or Sovereign profile, giving you a total of 24 different options, making Elegance Colour suitable for residential and commercial properties.
